A jackson, Tenn, special to the Nash.
vile Union says that the town was full Of
people last week from surrounding coun.
ties, mostly farmers, who were called from
their homes at this busy season, either as
principals or witnesses, for violation Of
the internal revenue laws. One farmer
had twisted up a little surplus tobacco,
several others had sold corn or fruit
which went into wildcat distilleries
For each Of these cases, two or three
dozen men had to leave their homes and
attend court at a season when they can
least afford to leave their farms. We re-
member-it has only been o few years
ago-when such things were held up in
the democratic press of the state, as evi.
dences of republican mis-rule. The pee.
pie were gravely told that II the demo.
cratic party should be entrusted with the
affairs of government, the odious revenue
laws would be repealed. They have not
been repealed and no effort has been
made to repeal them.
10 the contrary, when at the last ses.
sion Of congress, three distinguished
democrats made a formal request for
recognition, in order that they nigh,
move TO repeal the law taxing tobacco,
the democratic speaker Of the house ar.
bitrarily refused to do so. He was SC
welded TO the internal revenue laws. tina,
he was not willing to recognize one Of
his own party to move for the repeal OF
even q part Of them. Men are still being
arrested for their violation, and are drag
ged before the courts, and prosecuted
with all the eagerness Of democratic Of
ficials. -Rno1eilb Journal.

THE vigorous measures being taken in

lie never asks which party is guilty Of
these outrages. 1t is taken as a matter Of

the killing Of cattlemen in the Navajo

cause is alleged to have been a refusal
